RTS community is going to experience the same shit the FPS community had when games like Halo gained mass popularity. Enjoy your slowed down dumb as shit babbys first esport

i already experienced that when starcraft 2 came out, i guess this will be even worse

Obviously LoL is easier than SC2, pro gamers from SC2 can do impressive things.

Still for me LoL is the best moba style game on the market so far, the fact that you cant deny creeps doesnt make it easier, makes it different.

Competitive matches are pretty entertaining tho, last IEM tournament finals M5 (only russian famous team and the best in the world right now) played in a completely different way than teams use to, changing the meta and destroying a team that was supposed to give them a decent fight (Dignitas).

Give the game a chance, dont judge it just because the graphics are kinda cartoonish.

When I see people playing these new games, I get that old man get off my lawn mode of, " Back in my day we played games that weren't catered to noobies like you. "

My brother in law & my nephew LOVE modern warfare series. Play it ALL the time. Whenever I go visit and they're playing all I can think of is ugh, this shit is horrible compared to CS. A fucking joystick? Drop my CS player with my mouse in this server and I'd fucking massacre all 30 of the players 1000-0.

Same with broodwar and these nublet RTS games.

It's like the game speed and skill level requirement have lowered 500% to cater to the average casual noob

i used to think that too that the skill level was lowered in todays games, but i changed my mind and i think im just extremely experienced and thats why these new games feel easy and dumb.
but at the progaming level its all the same, nothing changed
